Hard News: How about that cricket, eh?, in reply to Simon Chamberlain,
Don’t think I can ever remember a game that swung back and forth so often...
Yes, according to Mark Stafford from the TAB, favouritism changed 31 times during the match.

Muse: A C!#& and Balls Story, in reply to Ray Gilbert,
There was a multiplex on Clark St* where we would go regularly and maybe one day there will be again.
*It's now a Redpaths furniture shop. That strange disc-thing above the showroom entrance? It was a giant film reel that has since been painted red.

Location was definitely a factor, and sometimes made a big difference. There was some very thoughtful placement. Part of it was like walking through an Enchanted Forest or should that be Enchanted Bush with the anticipation of seeing the sculptural surprise round the next bend. In the open headland portion, it was a field of sculptures. I especially liked the way the James Bond popped up in photos of other sculptures.
"Field Apart" with the mirrored columns reflect the surroundings so your experience of it depends hugely on weather and how busy it is. We went on an overcast day, and I expect it will look different on a blue-sky day.
"Sculpture Walk" was laid out parallel to the walking path which was a nice touch; they were doing what we were doing.
We first saw "Landform" from the path, but cordoned-off. You could get close enough to touch or walk around the earlier sculptures but not this one. I felt unsatisfied by this one until later on when we got far enough away to look back & take in the whole.
"Colonial Fence - a modern day tinker", the number 8 wire one had traffic issues for me: you had to wait your turn to walk past it & I didn't feel like I could linger because I'd be holding up the people behind me.

Thanks for the opportunity.
By the way, that geometric sculpture? It's "Fragmented Interactions" by Gregor Kregar who is currently in the news.

Water & weed. Taken from the wharf at Oban, Stewart Island. I like that it looks like an impressionist watercolour.

It seems like no Kiwi holiday is complete without having to stop for sheep. This was on SH85 on our way to St. Bathans (top). The landscape got lonely (mid). The St Bathans Blue Lake (bottom).
